Exploring New Realities

Research, teaching, and development of immersive experiences at the University of Vigo.

Our Mission

Immersive technology at the service of knowledge

This portal brings together the initiatives of the University of Vigo in the field of XR (Extended Reality) technologies. From our own metaverse UNIverso to advanced simulation platforms, we open a space for students and researchers to explore, learn, and propose the future of digital education.

Completed Projects

Pioneering initiatives developed at UVigo that combine academic research and immersive technology.

What can we build together?

Your idea, our technology

You don't need to know how to program. If you have research or a subject that could benefit from these technologies, we will advise you and develop the prototype.

Health Sciences
Health Sciences

Interactive 3D Anatomy

Replace flat atlases with holographic models. Allow students to "disassemble" the human body layer by layer.

Data Science
Data Science

Data Visualization

Does your research generate thousands of data points? Walk among your 3D charts to detect complex patterns.

Humanities
Humanities

Historical Reconstruction

On-site Augmented Reality applications to overlay digital reconstructions onto archaeological ruins.

Engineering
Engineering

Virtual Laboratories

Handling dangerous reagents or heavy machinery in a safe environment without physical risks.

Psychology
Psychology

Exposure Therapies

Controlled environments to treat phobias (heights, spiders, flying) by grading the stimulus intensity.

Architecture

Frequently Asked Questions

Any member of the university community (students, faculty, and staff) can propose ideas or join existing initiatives.

You don't need to be a programming expert. Send us your proposal to contacto@kendra.es and our technical team will analyze if it is feasible.

Absolutely. Your role is to provide the subject matter expert (SME) knowledge. We handle the technical implementation.
